Marry the Demon Sect Girl with No Bride Price-Chapter 154: The Beauty Bathes Without Clothes
"Si Minglan?"
Narrow Rain Lane.
When Qin Gengyun returned home, it was noon, and Qiu Zhihe had already prepared the meal.
The family of three sat down to eat, and Qin Gengyun mentioned the invitation from Si Minglan.
Liu Su’s eyes widened: "Third Senior Sister from Xiyue Peak, number twenty on the beauty ranking, that Si Minglan? Wow, brother-in-law, what’s she like?"
Qin Gengyun said, "Susu, what are you thinking? Si Minglan is the third senior sister from Xiyue Peak. Why would she invite a mere loose cultivator like me out of the blue? I feel something’s amiss."
Qiu Zhihe asked, "How does she look?"
Qin Gengyun was stunned; he didn’t expect his wife to ask as well. He could only answer:
"She seems somewhat alluring, but her actions appear rather indulgent."
Seeing Qiu Zhihe’s expression, Qin Gengyun hastily added, "In my view, she doesn’t compare to you, my dear."
Qiu Zhihe’s expression remained calm. She placed a piece of meat in Qin Gengyun’s bowl, saying curtly:
"Being ranked twentieth on the beauty list, naturally she would be better-looking than me."
Though her words were humble, the disdain in them almost overflowed onto Cyan Luo Lane.
Liu Su covered her mouth, laughing quietly, while Qin Gengyun sighed helplessly and asked, "Let’s talk serious. Darling, I truly can’t figure out what Si Minglan is up to."
Qiu Zhihe was silent for a moment before calmly saying, "It’s fine for you to go tonight, just remember well what your mentor taught you."
"What my mentor taught me?" Qin Gengyun was about to ask further when Qiu Zhihe continued:
"Si Minglan excels at Charm Technique."
With that, she resumed her meal.
Qin Gengyun’s face broke into a smile: "Thank you for the guidance, my dear. I understand now."
Qiu Zhihe placed another piece of meat in his bowl.
"Return early."
After lunch, Qiu Zhihe cleaned up the dishes, and Liu Su joined her in the kitchen to wash. Qin Gengyun wanted to help but was sent to the Alchemy Room to cultivate by Qiu Zhihe.
Once Qin Gengyun shut the door and began his cultivation, Liu Su grinned and whispered:
"Brother-in-law only knows that Si Minglan is ranked twentieth on the beauty list, unaware that the Saintess ranks second; if he were told, he’d probably be scared to death."
In the Celestial Immortal Pavilion beauty ranking, Xia Qinglian is second, Ye Xiyue third, and Su Hongling fourth. Indeed, a twentieth-ranked Si Minglan isn’t qualified to compare with Xia Qinglian.
"What does Xia Qinglian being second have to do with Qiu Zhihe?"
Qiu Zhihe remarked casually as she washed the dishes.
Liu Su was taken aback, leaned closer to scrutinize Qiu Zhihe’s expression, then suddenly laughed:
"Miss, I believe that even Qiu Zhihe would outshine them all! But, when you get pregnant, whose belly will grow bigger, Qiu Zhihe’s or Xia Qinglian’s?"
Qiu Zhihe shot her a cold look, and Liu Su chuckled nervously: "Miss, men often grow tired of the old for the new. If Si Minglan sets her eyes on brother-in-law, I worry he may not maintain his fidelity."
Qiu Zhihe sneered: "It’s just unsubstantial Charm Technique; I don’t even give it a thought."
Liu Su looked at her with a sly grin: "Miss, I accidentally found an intriguing outfit in your room—a blouse with a hollow design and two sheer stockings. Could it be... you’ve already trained brother-in-law to resist all allure?
"Ow! Miss, I’ve erred, I won’t dare again, ow!"
...
Nightfall.
Moon Drinking Tower.
In a private room called "Moon Charm."
"Third Senior Sister, Uncle Qin is a friend of my father. He and his wife are deeply in love; if anything happens to him, his wife would be utterly devastated. Could you... just interrogate him, without harming him?"
Fang Xue knelt before Si Minglan, pleading.
Si Minglan had already changed out of her Purple Sun Brocade Robe, now wearing a Smoke Cloud Butterfly Skirt, embroidered with two colorful butterflies, very striking.
The neckline of the skirt was exceedingly low, the hem exceedingly high, revealing snow-white cleavage above and jade-like legs below. Even as a fellow woman, Fang Xue dared not look directly at the sensual allure of Si Minglan.
"Junior Sister Fang, what are you doing? If that Alchemist Qin aligns with the Righteous Path, I certainly won’t bother him. But if he’s truly with the Demon Sect, you want me to let him go?"
Si Minglan squatted down, resting her chin on her hands, smiling as she looked at Fang Xue:
"Or is it that Junior Sister Fang already knows Alchemist Qin’s identity, yet still wishes to protect him?"
Fang Xue trembled, her forehead touching the ground, earnestly saying:
"Third Senior Sister, I’m a disciple of Zhenyang Sect; how could I not know the greater good? Please don’t joke like this anymore!"
"Hehehe, alright, I won’t tease you! You can leave; I’m going to bathe."
Si Minglan stood up, unbuttoning her clothes, and the colorful Smoke Cloud Butterfly Skirt slipped down, revealing her fair and voluptuous figure.
"Third Senior Sister..."
Fang Xue hadn’t expected her to undress so suddenly, her face flushed red, quickly saying:
"Uncle Qin is arriving soon; I’ll wait outside for you."
"No need. You’ve been away from your parents for days. Tonight, you may return home."
Si Minglan waved her hand, walking into the next room naked. Soon, water sounds were heard, and through the semi-transparent cicada-wing curtain, one could see a curvaceous figure sitting in the bath barrel.
"Third Senior Sister, I..."
"Leave now!"
The seductive voice suddenly turned cold, and Fang Xue had no choice but to bow and assent, leaving the room.
Gritting her teeth, she flew out of Moon Drinking Tower, heading home.
With Third Senior Sister’s cultivation, she would be discovered even if hiding nearby, so she could only follow orders and leave.
Fang Xue felt anxious, knowing the effects of Third Senior Sister’s Charm Technique, once unleashed, no man could escape.
It’s said that even the brothers in Zhenyang Sect whose cultivation surpassed Third Senior Sister dared not be alone with her.
Hopefully... Uncle Qin will pass this test.
Not long after Fang Xue left, Qin Gengyun arrived at Moon Drinking Tower.
A servant greeted him with a smile. Qin Gengyun stated his name, and the servant, following Si Minglan’s earlier instruction, promptly led him upstairs to a private room.
"Your senior is inside, guest, please feel free."
With that, the servant departed. Qin Gengyun looked up at the plaque hanging on the private room, inscribed "Moon Charm."
Qin Gengyun paused, finally raising a hand to knock on the door:
"Senior Si, it’s Qin Gengyun."
From inside came a tenuous voice: "Alchemist Qin, I’ve waited so long for you, come in quickly."
The voice sounded distant yet was filled with allure and enticement.
Any other male cultivator would surely have been restless by now.
But Qin Gengyun’s mind was filled with thoughts of his wife’s serene dignity and gentle beauty, making him indifferent to the deliberately seductive voice.
Opening the door, he saw a table laid with sumptuous dishes and fine wine.
On the floor lay a colorful dress, even women’s lingerie.
Qin Gengyun was surprised; he heard the splashing of water and an alluring voice so seductive it seemed to drip with temptation:
"Alchemist Qin, I forgot to bring my clothes, could you please bring them in for me?"
